Mosley averaged 5.3 points last season but spent much of the offseason honing his shooting touch. The sophomore guard went 7 for 9 from the floor.

Julian Sanders scored 14 and Thomas Young had 13 for the Crimson Hawks, a Division II team that went 22-8 last year.

Maryland trailed 18-15 before Adrian Bowie contributed three baskets to a 12-0 run that put the Terrapins ahead for good. Minutes later, Terps freshman James Padgett made a layup and a follow-jam to ignite an 11-point surge that made it 42-26 late in the half.

The Crimson Hawks got within eight points early in the first half, but could not draw closer. It was 50-40 before Maryland freshman Jordan Williams made two free throws and Mosley added successive layups to boost the margin to 16.

Padgett and Williams are expected to add bulk and scoring inside to a team that last year relied heavily on its guard play. Williams had seven points and six rebounds, and Padgett finished with eight points and four rebounds.

The Terrapins played without junior forward Dino Gregory, who was held out of the game for violating team rules. He was replaced in the starting lineup by Padgett.
